Old Town European Market

About Us

Our Background

My name is Kristina Yelisey. My family and I immigrated from Uzbekistan to United States in 2000. We lived in Portland Oregon for awhile where I met my husband Aleksey Pavlov. Had two wonderful kids when we decided to move to Springfield Missouri. We wanted to move somewhere where it’s beautiful, peaceful and family friendly environment. We lived here for a year when we made a decision to open a European grocery store. The credit for the idea goes to my dad Nikolay Yelisey. With help of our close relatives and friends we made this idea happen. My parents moved to Springfield shorty after to work on the store together and make it succeed. We thrive to satisfy our customers and we appreciate each and every one of them.
